De Cuba: Ricardo Manuel Gelaz Ramírez
Posted: Wed Apr 21, 2004 1:57 am
Hace mucho tiempo que busco una vía para conocer algo sobre mis ancestros en Asturias,pero me ha sido bastante difícil ya que sencillamente no sé que hacer.Los datos que tengo sobre ellos son bastante pocos;mi bisabuelo se llamaba Manuel Gelas Hermans y emigró de Asturias a Cuba a principios del Siglo pasado,hijo de Ricardo Gelas y Rita Hermans,padre de Ricardo Manuel Gelaz Capote.Como ven,es poco lo que tengo,creo que hasta hace pocos años Ricardo Manuel Gelas Capote aún vivía en New York.
Cualquier ayuda será valiosa,así como consejos de que hacer.
Gracias de Antemano

For a long time I've been searching for a way to learn about my Asturian ancestors, but it's been pretty hard since I simply don't know what to do. The amount of information that I have about them is fairly small. My great grandfather, named Manuel Gelas Hermans, emigrated from Asturias to Cuba and was the father of Ricardo Manuel Gelaz [Gelas??] Capote. As you can see, what I have is very minimal. I believe that until just a few years ago Ricardo Manuel Gelas Capote still lived in New York.
Any help would be valuable, even advice on what I should do.
Thanks in advance.
